AR/VR EARBUDS.
Wearable AR/VR Earburd
​
When the Apple VisionPro got announced I tried to imagined how that VR/AR experience could become part of our daily life in a decade with a new miniaturized form factor.
I’m not convinced glasses are the ideal all-in1 solution, however ‘ear-wearable’ like Airpods are well accepted and already enhance the user in many ways with noise cancellation.
That’s my take on a boosted AirPod that would contain VR/AR scanning tech/Lidars to track the user facial expressions, eye movement, hand movement and surroundings.

WEAR IT.
VR/AR sensors always on your head
​
As earbuds are now a common tech to wear all day long, this device uses this trend to integrate into it AR/VR sensor capabilities.
The device captures the user's facial movement, allowing it to read the user's emotions, and where he is looking.
This provides higher control over the various tech products, allowing the use of eye control with the phone.
The sensors pointing at the user's surroundings allow to capture the world around them and analyze it at any given moment.

COUPLE WITH AR/VR DISPLAY.
Combine it with an AR/VR display
​
Because this product contains all the sensor tech required to display efficient AR/VR content, it allows the use of lighter display-only products to actually see the digital world.
This could be light glasses, or display-based contact-lenses that the user could wear.
SIMPLE DESIGN.
Minimalist and simple design
​
This product takes several inspiration from the Apple Design language to create a premium wearable device that could become both trendy and iconic. It focuses on simple shapes and smart integration of sensors and cameras to deliver a comfortable experience to the user.
